Hcw87 Posted December 21, 2008 I have SAS free installed on 2 pc's and i have the same problem on both. Every time i'm rebooting/shutting down, i get a window popup telling me that ''SuperAntiSpyware.exe is not responding''. This has been happening for as long as i can remember now. It's not a huge problem, but i guess it's a bug and hopefully it'll get fixed. SuperAntiSpyware version: 4.23.1006 OS: Win XP Home Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you running AVG by chance? Something is blocking our product from exiting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hcw87 Posted December 22, 2008 Avira free and Comodo. I'e used ZA Firewall before, and the same thing happened. Might be Avira blocking it, but i'm not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandato Posted December 22, 2008 A good way to check is to temporarily remove(uninstall) what you think is blocking it and repeat the rebooting /shutdown and see if that cures the problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I removed the aviria free and the only thing that is starting up is superantispyware free and it is still hanging on restart or shutdown. This is a random thing on some computers and not on others. I have seen this so far on 10 computers not related to each other. some are running avg, some avira. And i have seen them on other computers that have both and it shuts down fine, so there is a bug somewhere. robin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tom-m Posted December 23, 2008 I had to reinstall the O/S on one of my pc's that had this problem (SP3). I had no problems (not really a problem, more like a glitch) on shutting down with just SP2 installed. As soon as SP3 is fully installed, glitch returns. I have Avira installed and have used three different firewalls and still same glitch, I feel it must be something in SP3 that is causing it, or at least in combination with something else. All I know is that when I shut down with just SP2 installed this anomaly was absent...SP3 installed, it returns...strange. cheers tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
